Physical Education The Health Department, by means of lectures, guest speakers, and movies, instructed Interboro students in the rudiments of good health. As both the mental and physical aspects of health were discussed, the traditional admonitions against disease and accident were supplemented by instruction in personality de- velopment. The companion department, the Physical Education Department, through sports and programmed exercises assisted students in building and maintaining the fitness of their bodies. The depart- ment also promoted self-confidence, and encouraged team work. MRS. JANE JACKSON 112 E. Marthart Ave., Havertown Beaver College, B.S.; Physical Education, Health; Basketball Coach. MRS.

COOPERATIVE PLANNING BETWEEN MR. KOES AND A STUDENT assures success in a project. Practical Arts The Practical Arts Department served students who were in- terested in neither academic nor business vocations, but would become equally embroiled eventually in the progress of an ever changing and dynamic world. The girls, in a fully equipped and modern Home Economics Department, were specially trained in homemaking, and con- sumer education. The boys, in a business-like Shop Depart- ment, were trained in blue print reading, mechanical draw- ing, and shop mechanics. The Shop Department constantly hummed with the whir-r-r of machines, while the Home Eco- nomics Department sent forth enticing aromas of freshly baked goodies. An interesting recent innovation was a course in homemaking for the boys, and one in home mechanics for the girls. Stu- dents in the Practical Arts Department were thus provided a firm foundation for future vocations and immediate employ- ment in homemaking and shop work. MR. J. STANLEY LANDIS 221 S. Bullens Lane, Woodlyn Millersvllle State Teachers College, Temple University, B.S.; Head of Practical Arts Department; Mechanical Drawing, Blueprint Reading. MRS. CHARLES FOX 349 S.

PLEASANTNESS OF APPROACH, their mark of distinction, in all situa- tions alleviates every aggravation that arises. Secretaries Several years of experience enabled Mrs. Ruth Williams and Mrs. Kathryn Fraser to run our high school office efficiently. Since all incoming and outgoing transactions were dealt with here, their office became the nerve center of Inter- boro High School, and their congeniality and helpfulness were always appreciated by the stu- dents. Future Teachers of America The principal goal of the Future Teachers of America Club was to encourage and guide students who were interested in pursuing a teaching career. It achieved its goal by inviting guest speakers who presented their views on teaching, by ob- serving the process of teaching, and by supervised substitute teaching in the elementary schools. 1st ROW: J.
